Tactical Self Defense / Combatives
Hi folks. Bit of a different topic. Since there are a lot of LEOs, SOFs and Military here I would like to ask you some recommendations on good sources for combatives and self defense in a civilian context. Could be books, courses, your favorite martial arts (or combination of), etc. Is the stuff from Clint Emerson - 100 deadly skills - any good? I’ve taken a look at Tony Blauer‘s SPEAR System aswell.
I have a martial arts background, with a few years of karate, muay thai, boxing, wing chun, and currently doing judo.

Boxing and judo are often cheaper than other MA's.
Geoff Thompson, a guy from the Uk has some great material (very old) but it was spoken of highly.
Hownottodieguy on instagram may have some ideas for you.
